Teacher Treasure Chest

Ever wish you had a tool that would engage students, allow time to observe, and be easy to use? Well, if you have your TV connected to your computer or a smart board, I have a website just for you!

Go to www.paducah.k12.ky.us/curriculum/PPoint/ to discover a treasure chest of powerpoints other teachers have created. There are primary classroom and intermediate presentations, plus "The Jeopardy Game" templates ready to use with just a click of your mouse. You need to have powerpoint on your computer to take advantage of this tool.

Some of the topics include:
Grade 4 and 6 punctuation
Nursery Rhymes
The planets
All About Me
Dolch Sight Words for Pre-primer-3rd grade
Counting with pennies,dimes, nickels, quarters
Using the right word
Telling Time
AND SO MUCH MORE!

Last spring, I had the pleasure of conducting a workshop with Salter teachers on how to construct powerpoint presentations. In one afternoon this clever group of teachers created powerpoints for the beginning of school such as "Welcome to 3rd Grade" and "Welcome to the Library." Others decided to focus on skills such as nouns, adjectives, and other topics. There is no limit in using this tool.
